Oh, that's what those squash are called.

Most of my baby squash seem to be rotting off the vine. I guess they didn't get pollinated...at least that's what the internets told me was wrong when the same thing happened to pumpkins last year. I guess I will have to try pollinating if I can catch any open blooms.

OTOH I have lots of zucchini growing. It's so exciting to see things grow.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Patty pan squash

Those are edible? I thought they were purely decorative.

From a local on my Twitter feed:

"American friend also says most US west coasters have never heard of molasses."

Really?

You can use pattypans anywhere you'd use zucchini - they're a mild summer squash. More pretty than flavor IMO.

Sue: I have some of those shoes! Well, this pair: [link]

Surprisingly Remix has very comfortable shoes.

Also, the molasses thing sounds wrong to me. I know what molasses is. Always have. But i'm not pure West Coast. Also, I use blackstrap molasses in Grace's blends almost everyday because there are so many good things like calcium and zinc. It always makes me think of winter holiday cookies whenever I open the bottle.

Henh! I just read this:

Specifically for pregnant women, 2 tbsp blackstrap molasses may be taken twice daily instead of iron supplement tablets.
